[jira] [Updated] (NIFI-5955) Provide a Docker HEALTHCHECK

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5955?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Anthony Mastrean updated NIFI-5955:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
It takes Nifi a noticeable amount of time to become available at [http://localhost:8080/nifi.] We can help indicate readiness to both human and machine users (see [depends_on|https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-file-v2/#depends_on] in Compose) by establishing a HEALTHCHECK in the Dockerfile.

The [documentation|https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#healthcheck] suggests
{code:java}
HEALTHCHECK CMD curl -f http://localhost:8080/nifi || exit 1{code}
 

But, there are [better cURL flags|https://explainshell.com/explain?cmd=curl+-fsSL+example.org] for scripts.
{code:java}
HEALTHCHECK CMD curl -fsSL http://localhost:8080/nifi || exit 1
{code}
 

And I sometimes see problems using {{localhost}} (possibly a Docker networking issue?). I've seen this pattern suggested elsewhere. 
{code:java}
HEALTHCHECK CMD curl -fsSL http://$(hostname -i || echo localhost):8080/nifi || exit 1
{code}
